songs from home

a brief history of the places i've lived, in a mixtape.

[mxpx - move to bremerton] i was born in bremerton, washington and lived there until my parents decided to return to the east coast. the only thing it really has going for it is the ferry that will take you to seattle.

[james taylor - sweet baby james] i don't care how old and bald he gets, i will always love james taylor. when i was little my mom would sing this song to me as i was going to sleep, and i especially loved the line about the turnpike from stockbridge to boston. honestly, hearing this makes me a little teary.

[the pixies - umass] i have one thing in common with joey santiago and black francis, and that is we all lived in the same shitty dorm in college. this song is good anyway, but the lyrics make it that much better. if only they mentioned sylvan.

[bun-b - city of the swang] featuring mike jones (MIKE JONES) and slim thug. are you tired of references to bun-b yet?
